To Whom it May Concern:

I have known Alyxander Beeten for nearly 11 years now. Alyx is one of my child's, Charli Gisi’s,
best friend. I have read through countless essays and reports written by Alyx and I have seen
much improvement since he started in journalism.

Alyx has always been super competitive and eager to get things done, I have never seen him
put so much effort into something like he does in journalism. He constantly comes to my house
and has his nose in his computer attempting to finish a story.

I honestly believe Alyx has finally found something he is clearly passionate about and excited to
do.
